This is the first post from my new laptop. I thought I should mention that. Now nothing can stop me from blogging, I've even been thinking of starting to truly tumblr, not only stalk other people. I would've wanted the first post to be something Gaga related but there's no new material from her and I'm afraid you'll slay me if I post some random remix. I still love her, don't worry, not posting about her does not mean I got over the whole Little Monster thing.
Back to the real subject, Pink's Raise your glass song is quite great. It's somewhere in top ten on the Billboard chart but who cares. Last night she performed it on the AMAs and it was quite fun, she put on quite a show for the audience. Right after seeing that I YouTube'd her only to realize in shame that she also has a video for the single. Been released at the beginning of this month. And my God, is it awesome.
It's fun, interesting, awkward, quirky and cool, all at the same time. It's also a typical Pink video, has a lot of funny scenes, all related to the lyrics.
She recently announced that she is pregnant so I guess that means double the reason to raise your glass for her. So raise your glass is you are wrong for all the right reasons and hit that play button.

Thought I'd leave you a little something to enjoy while I am pretending to be busy. There are some really good tracks on Rihanna's latest album, Loud. I love them all, for very different reasons. Give the album a spin and tell me in the comments below what your favorite song is.

Tired of sitting in the backseat Rihanna took control over her newest video, which features Drake. Featuring a different kind of love story, not a dysfunctional one unlike Love the way you lie, Rihanna falls in love with Drake, or the other way around.
The fairly limited range of locations helps keep the story somewhat fluid thought I still don't know what is up with those drummers even after watching the video a couple of times. Not to worry, the song is great and makes up for the ordinary video.
Billboard's Hot 100 top has the song placed on the very top. I guess people really like the song. Plus, Only Girl is on the 4th place so she's quite cool at the moment.

You just got to ignite the light and let it shine. Just (dance) own the night.
I liked Katy's Firework from the very beginning. Her Teenage dream album was released this summer and I've had it on heavy rotation during my work weeks. It did not sell very well but I love it.
My God is the video amazing or what? There are so many things to love about it.
First of all, Miss Perry is done with silly wigs, for now at least, and she's looking as beautiful as always. It is clear that she loves purple, as does Gaga (lavender)...and my sister. Speaking of which, I need a new purple T-Shirt and maybe an orange one.
Second of all, special effects are great though computer generated. They help us visualize the lyrics. The crowd of people is made entirely out of winners from a local competition, all fans of Katy.
Now the characters. Woah. A sick girl (which actually shaved her head for the video), a self-depreciated girl, a different magician, a boy tired of being witness to his parents' fights and a gay couple (actual couple). The director confessed he wanted to create a video with a deep meaning. I suppose he's done it right as all the characters manage to show their inner firework.
Did the lyrics make you go boom, boom, boom, even brighter than the moon? They certainly appealed to me. These words are now carved into my soul:
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow.
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow.
